Price check: iMac G5 20"

archimed · Jan 13th, 2007, 06:39 AM

Howdy folks. I hate to make this my first post, but I was curious about a price/interest check on a 20" iMac G5. It's the 1.8 ghz non-iSight model with Superdrive, 120gb HD, 1gb paired RAM, BT keyboard and BT mouse. It's in flawless shape, but it has no applecare left on it.

I'm tempted to upgrade to a refurb 20" iMac Core Duo and wondering if this baby has enough value left in it to make the upgrade possible.

Glad that I'm finally able to post here. I've lurked on these forums for quite some time.

Welcome to ehMac!

I would venture that your computer without Applecare would be in the range of $700 - $1100. I know it's a big price difference.. but, if you want a quick sell, the lower end would sell it quickly. One, recently sold for $795 right here on ehMac.

Good luck.

I sold pretty much the Same computer in September for $900. I also upgraded to a Refurb CoreDuo 20". It's a screamer, you'll love the upgrade.
